That was my Kerker back in 78/79. Good looking system but lost a lot of cornering clearance. Had a custum exhaust made by "Lehnhart" which came up on the left side of the bike and allowed access to the oilfilter. I have to look for some old pics.

Let me add to MDawnZ1's data:

Measurements are at the head fitting at the gasket.

Mac ID 1 3/8" OD 1 1/2"
Kerker ID 1 1/4" OD 1 1/2"

Note the Bassani has a larger ID than either the Mac or Kerker.

does anyone know if any of these pipes will fit a 82 gpz 1100. i have a "krackler" 4-1 with a mac muffler on it and it drags the ground every time i make a hard right. i drags at the collector.

MDawnz1 ,that collector does seem odd . any thoughts on why? the sound wave will expand there and be compressed by atmospheric preasure. Thats a bad thing. thats why the megaphone was suposed to help,it would expand slower at a controlled rate which would increse speed? Just like the shape at the end of a rocket.
I dont know why they say that theory worked but the modern pipes dont use it.
This is all very interesting.:S
